So semi finals must be Dublin v Mayo, and Tyrone v Kildare? tyroneed (Tyrone) - Posts: 753 - 07/04/2013 18:29:42 1362450 Link 0 |
Expect the Donegal PR machine to go into overdrive this week. By the middle of the week I'm sure we'll be hearing stories about how they were running up and down Everest as a warm down after their incredible sessions. Their bigger and stronger than ever we'll be told if the media are true to form. Dropping a lead in last few minutes to one of their biggest rivals at home is ideal preparation and all part of Jim's master-plan... doublehop (Kildare) - Posts: 4172 - 07/04/2013 18:35:36 1362459 Link 0 |

Great performance in Cork by Mayo. League specialists indeed. Pity we cant show the same doggedness grinding out a result in the Champoinship. mod (Mayo) - Posts: 859 - 07/04/2013 18:56:12 1362487 Link 0 |
Nothing personal MuckrossHead and I'm really not trying to put the boot in when ye're down. Donegal have an unbelievably talented bunch of players but there has been some seriously exaggerated stories and myths about McGuinness, this team and their preparations. doublehop (Kildare) - Posts: 4172 - 07/04/2013 19:17:32 1362521 Link 0 |

Fair play to Dublin. They battled well. Young Mannion had a great few points. Donegal fitness finally starting to get there. Pity Murphy's point wasn't seen by the DLlegends (Donegal) - Posts: 503 - 07/04/2013 19:33:26 1362543 Link 0 |

Good man doublehop, we gave upa lead against what is the best team in the country at the minute by a mile, whether or not they will be in September we shall see, have to say I enjoy your comments about Donegal being stronger and fitter than everyone else is laughable, we all thought that was Kildare until Meath and cork got a hold of yous last year, if you want to build JMG up to be some sort of messiah, tats fine, because you know what he just might be unlike some other ulster managers out there who doesn't need 6 years to try and win a title of any sorts apart fom a division 2title ben1977 (Donegal) - Posts: 364 - 07/04/2013 19:52:20 1362569 Link 0 |
Emmet, these tactical analyses are excellent, thanks. brendtheredhand (Tyrone) - Posts: 10897 - 07/04/2013 20:00:49 1362582 Link 0 |
actually thought that emmetryan analysis wasn't bad...some good points. Anyway, I am pleased that Kerry did the Houdini and managed to survive Div 1. Also, Donegal's focus (so Jim said) is the championship and here we will see if they are one of the rare teams to get a back to back. Dublin have the depth and of course handsome and brilliant Bernard (did you know his mother is from Kerry), Cork have a great back line but there is still some problems tying it altogether (as of course, have Kerry). Down are down......Kildare are fortunate to be in the semi-final, I was expecting more off them in play. Maybe they will up the game from now on. Mayo, OMG, Mayo..........will you for God sake go out and win the league. And Tyrone..........well what can I say....you heard it hear first.....prepare for another Kerry v Tyrone Croke Park fixture. I just love Tyrone!!! kerrykerry (Kerry) - Posts: 1779 - 07/04/2013 20:08:04 1362590 Link 0 |

Great game in Ballybofey , I think a draw was a fair result . It should have been a free for the Donegal midfielder but not a peno he was outside the box tv highlights clearly show that. What's wrong with Murphy doesn't look himself at all lately I thought he was poor today but young Paddy in the corner was very dangerous. I've seen it first hand today Donegal have no problems they just don't have as big a panel as everyone else but when everyone is back fit they will take serious beating. Cooper,Philly,Mccraffrey, O Sullivan, Andrews and Mannion very good for Dublin today. Roll on next Sunday against a very good Mayo team who I think are nearly favourites for Sam this year. clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 07/04/2013 21:09:55 1362670 Link 0 |

Beal yous have a very good team even without Moran but if he's back to full fitness what a bonus to Mayo this summer. Honestly before I never thought Mayo were good enough but this year I think they have a great chance. At times against us in Croker this year in the league some of the football Mayo played was the best I've seen from any team this year. clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 07/04/2013 21:48:59 1362720 Link 0 |
Doublehop- Jim has had more success in last two years than McGeeney will get for 20. Why are people so obsessed with the league. A kick of a ball put us down. We could not have been more unlucky. As I stated on another forum, peak time is the summer, not when Cadbury's cream eggs are still available for purchase TheRightStuff (Donegal) - Posts: 1688 - 07/04/2013 21:58:49 1362732 Link 0 |
